Epic Win injects gaming into task lists

Think about it. A large amount of the activities we partake in online these days utilise principles from the gaming world. Take FourSquare as an example – you collect achievements (badges), compete against friends (who can become the mayor of Ye Olde Mitre first?), explore new locations, share tips and receive rewards (special offers).

It was only a matter of time then until someone made the link between the humble yet pracitcal to do list and these gaming principles, right? Well, maybe. It does seem a rather intruiging concept – earn rewards for washing your pants or paying the rent. Thing is, you’re still just washing your pants and paying the rent, no matter how it’s tarted up.

Note: If Epic Win becomes a huge success we reserve the right to retract this entire blog post by printing it out and eating it.
